Filipino Language for Dummies 4 - Asking Questions

April 14th, 2008

It’s been a while since our last Filipino Language for Dummies. By this time, you should have memorized most of the words from the previous three lessons. Now moving on to our fourth lesson, it’s about asking questions in Filipino. When you visit the Philippines, it is inevitable that a visitor would ask questions to know more about the place. Simple questions of what, when, where, how and why.

So here is Ingrid again with her fourth video on how to ask questions in Filipino.



How to ask Questions in FilipinoWhat = Anowhat is your name? <==> Ano ang pangalan mo?When = Kailan

How = Paano
